3 Songs: On Repeat

1. Surf City - "Crazy Rulers Of The World" (A blaring wall of guitars and psych-surf sounds highlight the opening track from the New Zealand band's excellent debut full-length Kudos, out now on Fire Records.) www.myspace.com/killsurfcitygo

2. Gospel Music - "Automobile" (Duet with Tracyanne Campbell of Camera Obscura, taken from the new bedroom-folk project from Owen Holmes of Black Kids. The duettes EP also features duets with members of Vivian Girls and Magnetic Fields and is out now on Kill Rock Stars.) http://gospelmusicfla.com/

3. Wires Under Tension - "Mnemonics in Motion" (South Bronx duo combine danceable post-rock grooves with fluttering violins and horns on this standout track from their debut LightScience, filled with epic and athemic instrumentals, due out in Feb. on Western Vinyl Records.) http://www.wiresundertension.com/
